Well, it's late at night and I am tired, so this was an extremely brief look. Generally I am very impressed. The only things that i found difficult were: * course descriptions which were buried behind https links (which my version of Lynx doesn't do. I know it can, but I haven't bothered figuring out how yet.) If this stuff is just course information, which is what I wsa expecting it to be, it probably doesn't need to be behind much security. * Abbreviations, in the same lists. I think they were for different campuses, but it wasn't obvious until I had followed a couple of them. relatively trivial problems really. If the rest of it is that good, then well done. cheers (and good night - grin) Charles McCathieNevile On Thu, 25 Feb 1999, Joe Waller wrote: I have been working on a state wide education web site for a couple of years now and have tried to make the site both appealing and accessable each term. It can be challenging to keep it accessable while keeping the appearance fresh and consistent each term. I would appreciate any comments or feedback you might have. The site can be found at a virtual address of: http://statewide.orst.edu/ The site can also be found at: http://osu.orst.edu/dept/osustate/ ( We realize that the virtual address is not always reached by some programs such as lynx and an additional link to the real address has been added to the web server's default web page. ) <STRONG> and <EM> has been used where the "read word" should have some emphisis. <B> and <I> is used where a change of apperance only is desired. Tables have been avoided where possible and replaced with listed information (the pages that list the undergraduate and graduate degree programs are an example). A global stylesheet has be employed to keep the text consistent and unique to the site. The pages should be equally presentable from 640x480 to 1280x1024.
